About Tom
A musician, producer and entertainment professional of over twenty years. I will meet you at your skill level and work with you toward improvement - music production, DJ'ing, music recording, podcast recording & production.
I began my DJ journey in 1999 on Vinyl decks and have been DJ'ing since across all DJ technologies. I have also published and performed under multiple projects across a wide range of genres:
Skwid - Psy-Trance, Punk, Funk, Ambient, Electronica, Rap/Hip-hop
Modal - Techno, House, Tech-House, Acid
Dense One - Bass music, Dubstep, Drum & Bass, Ambient, Experimental
Octofreak - Forest psy, Dark-psy
I have been playing, recording and producing music since the late 90's. I have a strong background in instrumental music and music theory, from dance, rock, jazz, orchestral, electronic, and more.
The past 10-15 years have seen me take my music around Australia consistently as well as many international appearances and tours. This has also included programming and booking line-ups for major electronic festivals in Australia.
Alongside this I have run a successful record label, which has focused on discovering Australian talent and taking them to a global audience.
My life and passions have always been dedicated to music, and I love to share knowledge and elevate others around me.

Tom was an amazing help when I was starting out my DJing journey, providing tailored feedback and encouragement. Some of the lessons he provided stay with me to this day!
He’s incredibly personable and has a great sense of humour, in addition to a wealth of knowledge and natural musical talent. Cannot recommend Thomas more highly.See more recommendations
